Default G1 changing Ramp shoes

Can the Ramp Shoes be changed on the secondary (driven) clutch without disassembling the clutch on a G1 cart??

I have done it before. It takes some patience. You may have to widdle down the studs a little bit and put a little bit of grease on them to get them into the ramp. They always seem to large. If you tap on them to hard they will break.

When I did mine, I broke 3 before I decided to oversize the holes slightly. I just started as small as I could, checked the fit, redrilled, repeat until the new ramps fit with just a small amount of drag as you install them. Still in there to this day....2.5 years later.

Ah, OK, so you re-drilled the holes rather than filing the new shoes to fit the existing holes?

Yes I was afraid of weakening the ramps. I didn't have to drill much, very very little in fact. Almost like it was casting flash or something? But it only took a few minutes once I figured out which bit to use. I started with the smallest size I could, then worked my way up. The bits I have are for drilling/tapping and they are numbered according to their size, so it was very easy to get it just right without removing too much material.

Thank you. You don't happen to recall what size of bit it was??
How about knocking the old shoes out?

No I don't recall, sorry. Once you have the old ramps out it should be easy to size up though. I just knocked the old one's out with a punch.
